Rules
Is it legal to play a match in professional competition without shoes on?
Hi Justin,
Yes you can although I haven't seen it done for a long time. I do remember the Papua New Guinea team in the 1970s playing without shoes. They were just more comfortable in bare feet.
We explain the rule around how many times the ball is allowed to bounce on your opponent's side of the table.
